US based Rockwell Automation, global manufacturers of industrial automation solution, said Wednesday it has partnered with L&T Infotech to develop FactoryTalk an Information Solution Provider programme.
As a partner in the programme, L&T Infotech will join Rockwell Automation in helping global manufacturers build successful, plant-wide information applications and manufacturing execution systems (MES) using the FactoryTalk integrated production and performance software suite.
The Information Solution Provider programme was established by Rockwell Automation in October 2006 to provide manufacturers with a network of information systems.
Rockwell Automation vice president Kevin Roach said: "Having L&T as part of our partner network will help our customers use plant-floor data to improve collaboration and manufacturing performance."
L&T Infotech senior vice president Sunil Pande - also country manager US - said: "By using the FactoryTalk suite of customizable applications, we hope to provide our clients higher value by leveraging greater expertise in enterprise resource planning and enterprise systems integration."

L&T, Japan's MHI in Rs880cr steam turbine JV
Engineering and construction major Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has entered into a joint venture (JV) agreement with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) for setting up a supercritical steam turbine and generator manufacturing facility in the country, with a capital outlay of around Rs 880 crore.
This follows a technology licensing and technical assistance agreement for manufacture of supercritical turbine & generators, signed amongst L&T, MHI, and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation.
Supercritical turbines use higher steam temperatures and pressures than sub-critical pressure power generation, and are more fuel-efficient and environment friendly. Supercritical technology coal-based plants reduce fuel consumption relative to power output through which carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions can be reduced by about 2.5%.
The turbines are expected to meet the demand/supply gap for power plant equipment as envisaged in the country's plan for a mega ramp-up in power generation capacity.
The proposed manufacturing JV will have a product configuration catering to plant capacities ranging from 500 MW to 1000 MW. The manufacturing operation expected to commence sometime during the later part of 2008-09.
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, is one of the world's leading heavy machinery manufacturers, with consolidated sales of around $25 billion. MHI's diverse lineup of products and services includes shipbuilding, power plants, chemical plants, environmental equipment, steel structures, industrial and general machinery, aircraft, space rocketry and air-conditioning systems.
